Soreide Law Group is conducting an investigation on behalf of investors who may have suffered losses due to the actions of previously registered broker David Leslie Arlein (CRD#: 7145, Boca Raton, Florida). Known to have been affiliated with Cabot Lodge Securities LLC from March 12, 2014, to October 26, 2022, Arlein has been implicated in a number of client disputes alleging various forms of misconduct. These allegations include breach of fiduciary duty, misrepresentation, and negligence particularly involving GWG L Bonds and other complex investment vehicles.

Cabot Lodge Securities LLC Investor Accused Arlein Of Misrepresentation

Specifically, on July 6, 2023, a client of Cabot Lodge Securities LLC initiated FINRA Arbitration: 23-01916 against David Arlein. Namely, the client alleged breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, failure to supervise, and negligence concerning the purchases of GWG L Bonds during the year 2020. Due to this, the client allegedly experienced financial harm. Consequently, the client requested $300,000 in damages from Cabot Lodge Securities LLC or Arlein. Evidently, this arbitration is pending a resolution.

The investor also alleged violations of Securities Exchange Act and Securities and Exchange Commission rules, as well as violations of the Florida Securities and Investor Protection Act. It appears that Arlein's actions led the client to sustain damages with the purchase of GWG-L Bonds.

David Arlein Disclosed Unsuitable Recommendations Allegations By Cabot Lodge Securities LLC Client

Additionally, a client of Cabot Lodge Securities LLC contested David Arlein's sales practices by filing FINRA Arbitration: 19-03213.

Therefore, Cabot Lodge Securities LLC opted to settle the matter on November 20, 2020, for $150,000 in damages.

State Of Florida Sanctioned Arlein For Soliciting Business Without Proper Licensure

Evidently, on October 27, 2016, the State of Florida, Department of Financial Services issued Case: 194625-16-AG sanctioning David Arlein for infractions.
